Organisée par le musée des civilisations de l’Europe et de la Méditerranée sous l’égide de deux importantes associations internationales d’ethnologues, la Société Internationale d’Ethnologie et de Folklore (SIEF) et l’Association d’Anthropologie Méditerranéenne (ADAM), et avec la participation de l’IDEMEC, cette manifestation ressemblait, 4 jours durant, 414 chercheurs en ethnologie de 38 nationalités différentes. Ce sont les actes de leurs travaux qui sont présentés ici. Ce colloque a permis de discuter les approches actuelles concernant les peuples, les cultures et les territoires de l’Europe et de la Méditerranée, à partir de travaux ethnographiques et historiques, ainsi que d’établir un dialogue entre les différentes écoles d’anthropologie et les champs de l’ethnologie européenne et méditerranéenne. Dans une Europe et une Méditerranée en radicale mutation, l’occasion a été donnée aux chercheurs formés aux différentes traditions anthropologiques nationales d’interroger de nouvelles problématiques. Au 21ème siècle nous vivons tous “entre autres”. La société est ressentie comme culturellement hétérogène, des grands centres métropolitains attirant les travailleurs migrants du monde entier aux villages isolés mais néanmoins visités par les touristes et touchés par l’impact des mass-médias et de la réalité virtuelle. Les lieux, les objets et les pratiques culturelles que nous étudions pour identifier leurs propriétés sont tous impliqués dans une profonde remise en cause de l’histoire et du présent des cultures «autres». Le colloque visait à rendre cette expérience tangible en mettant en évidence aussi bien les conflits que les processus de rencontre. Les sous-thèmes choisis, ont permis de rassembler à la fois des sujets classiques de la recherche ethnologique et ceux des nouveaux champs de prospection que les collaborations interdisciplinaires ont fait naître. Outre son apport intrinsèque au développement des connaissances sur tel ou tel objet anthropologique, outre la possibilité qu’offre tout colloque de cette ampleur de mettre en contact des spécialistes du monde entier, ces échanges ont été une occasion unique de nous offrir un panorama à un instant donné de la recherche ethnologique sur l’aire euro-méditerranéenne. Nous faisons le pari que les synthèses publiées ici pour 22 des 36 ateliers qui furent organisés au cours du colloque ainsi que la restitution de des 7 conférences plénières donnent une idée assez juste des acteurs comme des thèmes et des terrains de la recherche anthropologique dans le monde Euroméditerranéen. Concernant les acteurs, il faut signaler l’exceptionnelle

Jelica Stojanović THE DEVELOPMENT PATH OF THE SERBIAN LANGUAGE AND SCRIPT Podgorica 2020 MILOš KOVAčEVIć THE DEVELOPMENT PATH OF THE SERBIAN LANGUAGE AND SCRIPT, MADE UP OF STRAY PATHS Only two years have passed from the two hundredth anni- versary of the beginning of Vuk Karadžić’s struggle for “intro- ducing the folk language in literature”, that is to say, from the introduction of the Serbian folk language in the Serbian literary language, or to put it in the more modern phrasing of today: the standard language. The beginning of that struggle is connected to the year 1814, when, in the royal city of Vienna, Vuk’s first grammar book came out: The Orthography of the Serbian Lan- guage Based on the Speech of the Common Folk, which dealt with resolving the three most important standard-related issues: a) the issue of the Serbian orthography, b) the issue of the morpho- logical structure of the Serbian language, and c) the issue of the name of the language and its national boundaries. Rare are the languages, if, indeed, there are any, which have had such a turbulent history of two hundred years. The histor- ical development of a language can be followed at two histor- ical levels: that of its internal and that of its external history.

CHAPTER 4 Alien by Default: The Identity of the Turks of Bulgaria at Home and in Immigration Magdalena ELCHINOVA New Bulgarian University, Sofia This article discusses how the identity of the Bulgarian-born Turks, who form the second biggest ethnic and religious group in Bulgaria, has been shaped and reshaped in critical situations and under the impact of changing politics of identity. The point of departure is the so-called „Revival process‟ which took place between 1984-1989, the last years of communist rule in the country. It was an assimilation campaign against the Turkish minority, aimed at the transformation of its identity and, ultimately, at its Bulgarisation. The last three months of this assimilation campaign were marked by the massive exodus of Turkish families from Bulgaria to Turkey.

  • The Jews of Bulgaria from Early Emancipation to Early Sionism: and in Between?
    1 “Encounters and Estrangements”, Pisa, November 12, 2012 Marco Dogo The Jews of Bulgaria from early emancipation to early sionism: and in between? The story of the Bulgarian Jews is based on a plot that can be summed up in a matter of minutes. At the close of the Ottoman rule they were a religious group that enjoyed official recognition. Demographically, they were the result of multiple immigrations and stratifications, but their homogeneous outward appearance was determined by the language they spoke, which for the vast majority was Judeo-Spanish. They were suddenly injected into a radically new institutional context by the decisions of the Congress of Berlin. The Treaty defined their legal position in the newly formed Bulgarian nation-state: like all Bulgarian citizens they would enjoy to the full both civil and political rights, and like any other resident on Bulgarian soil they would also enjoy freedom of religion and religious organization. It must be said, however, that the main concern of the legislators for peace was to protect the Muslim citizens of the new Principality. In any case, these principles were incorporated nine months later into the Constitution of Tărnovo, with no record of any attempt to limit their range. It is true that the Constituent Assembly was working “under Western eyes”: but the eyes of the Russian provisional civil governor were closer. Rather than to external European influences, then, the liberalism and the democratism of the Constitution of Tărnovo should probably be attributed to the wave of euphoria following the liberation of the country, also as regards the question of minorities.

  • Muslim Minorities in Bulgaria
    ELENA MARUSHIAKOVA & VESSELIN POPOV Muslim Minorities in Bulgaria Historical background Historians usually associate the entry of Islam in the terri- tory of Bulgaria and the subsequent emergence of Turkish and other Muslim minorities with the conquest of Bulgaria by the Ottoman Empire in the 14th century, when the coun- try was incorporated into the Empire. There is no doubt, however, that the much-disputed roots of the ethnic and religious mosaic of present day Bulgaria are older than that. We have to emphasise the fact that, in the Balkans, history is not so much a science as a constructive element in the process of nation formation and an essential struc- ture of national consciousness. Various scholary theories are often embedded into specific national doctrines and we should not be surprised at the radical discrepancies in eve- ry historical explanation of the same events or processes. The different periods in Bulgarian historical science are dominated by two extremely contradictory theories about the Ottoman invasion and the origin of the Turkish popula- tion in Bulgaria (Zheliazkova: 1997, 14). The contradictory policies of the Bulgarian state with respect to the Turkish and the other Muslim minorities in the different historical periods were based on these major theories. According to the first theory, the cruel genocide of Bulgarians after the Ottoman invasion was followed by intensive colonisation of the population in Anatolia (Asia Minor). This population was linked to the Ottoman mili- 1 tary invasion and was an important element in the coloni- tradition associates the Kizilbash with various Sufi broth- sation policy of the invaders.

  • The Case of Bulgaria Dr
    Transition, Violence and the Role of NGOs: the Case of Bulgaria Dr. Evgenii Dainov1 1. Violence in the post-modern world It is a mistake to think of violence as an aberration – a virus in the software that can be eradicated by narrow specialists. It verges on conceptual and political impotence to grasp violence as the product of a specific recent outside influence – television, pornography, Terminator-3, Tom and Jerry, George W. Bush – that can be legislated away or voted out. In post-modern times violence – particularly violence between large groups – is to do mostly with identity, status and recognition. In times when such matters are seen as settled and self- evident, they do not produce violence. In times when moorings are adrift – they do. There are things that can be done to counter, minimize or de-fuse violence. Some measure of success in this seems to be possible under two basic scenarios. One: when deciding to do something about violence, it may be useful to keep oneself as far away as possible from conceptual thinking (in order not to paint oneself into a corner by not seeing the full possibilities because of pre-existing conceptual limitations); and just try out all sorts of things that look as if they may work. And / or, two: have the right – the useful – conceptual basis, on which to construct a system of activities. There are few things more de-mobilising than seeing the results of action based on erroneous concepts. For example, if one were to follow a current school of thought and manage to, quickly and dramatically, improve living standards in the greater Middle East, this would not eradicate terrorist violence, because it would be based on an erroneous concept.
